Ohhh I'm glad to hear there's another, fellow DBT person here. I'm having great success with following it's core principles in minimizing panic attacks and bouts of anger.
Hey Candace, I wasn't sure after I posted if I read your intent wrong. I thought you had posted because the comments angered you, but now realize that was probably me projecting on your intent. I'm sorry if my response was against your intent. I'm okay, and was okay; I do get very, very passionate about things, but it didn't trigger me. There were some great comments mixed in and I think the whole thing is fascinating.
> I've also had success with Marsha Linehan's DBT, especially something called *distress tolerance*. I have not been self-harming (which is something this treatment was developed for, though not exclusively), but painful beliefs, feelings, and thoughts that I felt were intolerable and unshakable.
